The standard covers a range of battery types, including alkaline, zinc-carbon, and lithium primary batteries. It provides guidance on the selection of appropriate battery types for specific applications based on their performance characteristics and operating conditions.
BS EN 60086-1:1996 also specifies the requirements for battery labeling, packaging, and transportation. It provides guidelines for the safe handling, storage, and disposal of batteries, including recommendations for recycling and environmental protection.
Compliance with BS EN 60086-1:1996 is required in many countries to ensure the safety and quality of primary batteries used in a wide range of applications, including consumer electronics, medical devices, and industrial equipment. The standard has been updated several times since its initial publication to reflect the latest developments in battery technology and safety requirements.
